At implantation, with the acquisition of a receptive phenotype in the uterine epithelium, an
initial tenuous attachment of embryonic trophectoderm initiates reorganisation of epithelial …

A lesson learned from modern developmental biology is the striking degree of conservation
of strategies and molecules used to program developmental events in species as diverse as …

Implantation of the embryo in the uterus is a critical and complex event and its failure is
widely considered an impediment to improved success in assisted reproduction. Depending …

At embryo implantation, it is postulated that the initial contact between blastocyst and
maternal tissues is by adhesion of the trophoblast to the uterine epithelium. This cell-to-cell …

There is an urgent need to develop optimized experimental models to examine human
implantation. These studies aimed to (i) establish a human endometrium-like three …

The human endometrium is characterized by exceptional plasticity, as evidenced by rapid
growth and differentiation during the menstrual cycle and fast tissue remodeling during early …

This review covers the sequence of cell adhesion events occurring during implantation of
the mammalian embryo, concentrating on data from mouse and human. The analogy is …

The aim of this prospective cohort study was to identify altered biologic processes in the
endometrium that may be potential markers of receptive endometrium in patients with …

Establishment of early pregnancy is promoted by a complex network of signalling molecules
that mediate cell-to-cell and cell-to-extracellular matrix communications between the …

Previous studies indicated that calcitonin (CT), a peptide hormone involved in calcium
homeostasis, is transiently expressed in the receptive rat and human endometrial epithelia …
